There is some kind of heisenbug that shows up with autoload generation
from time-to-time. It occurs in non-parallel builds (so a parallel make
problem is not the cause).
See some examples:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2015-11/msg01610.html
GEN loaddefs.el
End of file during parsing
http://hydra.nixos.org/build/29135353/log/raw
GEN calendar/diary-loaddefs.el
Loading macroexp.elc...
cal-julian.el:0:0: error: end-of-file: nil
make[3]: *** [calendar/diary-loaddefs.el] Error 255
(The above error persisted for two builds, then went away for no
apparent reason.)
http://hydra.nixos.org/build/29917548/log/raw
ELC calendar/appt.elc
Eager macro-expansion failure: (void-variable cal-iso\.el)
In toplevel form:
calendar/appt.el:73:1:Error: Symbol's value as variable is void: cal-iso\.el
(I guess the cause of the above was a corrupt diary-loaddefs.)
I have no idea what causes it, nor why it only happens sometimes.
I guess adding some more debug code to the autoload generation that
looks out for such issues is the way to get more information.
